Fig. 2.

Regions showing significant negative correlations between MD and TEI subfactor scores. (Left panels) The results were obtained using a threshold of TFCE (P < 0.05) based on 5000 permutations. Regions with significant correlations are overlaid on a ‘single subject’ T1-weighted image generated by SPM8. The color represents the strength of the TFCE value. (Right panels) Thee right panels show residual plots with trendlines depicting the correlations between residuals in the multiple regression analyses with mean MD in the significant clusters as the dependent variable and other variables as independent variables. Sr represents semi-partial correlation coefficients. (A) Regions showing significant negative correlations between MD and TEI intrapersonal factor scores in and around the right putamen, right globus pallidum and right posterior insula. (B) Regions with significant negative correlations between MD and TEI intrapersonal factor scores are in the right fusiform gyrus.
